Bridging IPX Between Two Prestiges
NetWare
Client
Prestige 2
Note: The IPX network numbers shown above are examples only!
This configuration note explains how to set up a workstation on a network to use a Prestige to make a
connection to another Prestige to bridge IPX. In this configuration, the workstation has NetWare client
software so that you will be able to log into the NetWare server on the remote network. There will be
three items that you need to set up. These are the workstation and the two Prestiges.
I.
Workstation Setup (NetWare Client)
To set up the workstation (W/S), you will need to set the following parameters:
IPX Frame Type - First determine the frame type that the NetWare server that you wish to login
to is using, and set the same frame type on the NetWare client workstation.
Server Name - In some cases, you may need the name that has been configured for the NetWare
server you wish to login to. In the previous example, that would be 'Server_1'.
The procedure for configuring these parameters for your workstation may differ depending on the
type of IPX client software you are using on your workstation. If you are unfamiliar with how to set
these parameters, you can refer to the technical notes corresponding to your software.
